Can this be used on children? I have smaller kids, 4 years old. The bugs seem to bite them more. Can it be used on them?

I would put it on them, rather than be bitten and become ill Use it sparingly!

It has a high concentration of DEET. According to the directions, if using on children, do not put it on their hands; put it on your hands and then apply to the children's skin; wash off after coming inside. Do not let them handle it.

Yes, though with some restrictions. It must be applied by an adult, avoiding mouth and eyes with light application around the ears. Note on the product tube says "do not let children handle product."

It works on Bedbugs which are very hard to get rid off, I would say one of the hardest. Once I sprayed it in a corners of the room and bed and mattress all kinds of bugs showed up dead. I would give it a try.

If you mix with water and lemon juice it makes an awesome bug spray. If you just put it on your skin it won't last long and I think the smell would be to strong.

This stuff is a strong acid, and will leave bad burns if comes in contact with skin. I wouldnt use on a child. I would let the doctor freeze the wart off on a child.

yes you can use on kids. you don't have as many attachments as you would on a normal size clipper but if the attachments are what you're looking for as far as length absolutely. do not let the small size fool you is a very powerful unit. I know of several stylist who use it for trimming and for haircuts

I think they would work on kids 5 and up. If they slip off their wrist, ankles work just as we'll. I put one on my wrist and on on the opposite ankle and suffered no bites.

I found no ill effects for myself. It was great. I got this insect repellent in several different forms. As for first hand use with children - none.

Hi Joanne, I also have a 2 year old and used it on her. I just made sure that I didn't put it on her hands that she puts in her mouth. I also used it on my 3 month old's legs. :)

I chose not to use it on mine. But then I don't have a bug problem in it either. Contact the company and get a list of plants its safe to use on. I tried it on my epi's and they were not happy about it. Before I use it next year I'll have a list of the plants its safe to use on.

Good question. I don't think so but would consider it a judgement call on the parents part. I don't have children but did use this product with my niece and nephew. They are 4 and 8. They loved them. The heat generated is hot but not scolding by any means.

Not sure about bugs. I use it as a wood preservative . It's really good for this.

I have 3, one of each of my boys - your four year old will not be able to "play" with it. It is cool but it's not a kids toy! There are lots of other bumblebee's out there that are easier for that age group to play with - this is not one of them.

There is always a trade off. If it is too much stronger, you run the risk of unintended kill offs of "good" bugs, and probably more risk to yourself. I bought several bottles of non name brand insectiside that works great. Try a few different kinds yourself, maybe cheaper, and better.

I bought it for fleas on my dog and have put it directly on her with no problems. A friend of mine's husband used it in the Amazon and she said he was the only person on that trip not eaten alive by bugs - if you want more info you can go to everythingessential.me and look it up for all its uses, etc.

It is not only for kids, I use it for myself. I do use it on my two year old as well and she likes it. But I bought it primarily for my own personal use.

Yes, but hang it away from you,it attracts bugs and children who might wanna stick their finger in it. If they stick their finger in it to touch it,they will be eletricuted severly.,not enough to die but enough to go to hospital.

I would be very careful if I were you I would ask a vet.I only used it on my guinea pigs for mites.It worked really well but it might not take well to dogs.I only rubbed it on their skin as it is too strong to feed it to smaller animals.Remember,this is designed for use with horses and they are much larger than a dog.Ask a vet or research more on the net.Good luck.
